Abstract     Probiotics and preblotics play an increasingly important role in the discussion how to improve human health and how to prevent and treat certain diseases such as infections, coronary heart diseases, atopic diseases, chronic inflammatory bowel disease, obesity and others. There is increasing evidence that dietary modulation of the human microflora, e.g. functional food, probiotics and prebiotics is important for improved human health. Probiotic bacteria were shown to reinforce the different lines of gut defence by slimulation of immune and non-immune responses.
